Aren't you the dev behind Ashe's Adventures? Whatever happened to it? Was that game a scam or no? We're still waiting for your response, y'know

Oh, and also; no screenshots, no mention of what the game will include, $7 price tag.

We are literally witnessing an exact repeat of what happened with Ashe's Adventures, what the fuck is going on

That game hasn't been updated since June 6th of last year.

I'm sorry but using AI to make something like this, when you got called out for your previous project, and trying to sweep it under the rug?

Get lost, and stop trying to scam people out of money they can use on better projects and products.

[Eka]

I guess that is why the author made a new account to advertise this game. They are trying to pull another fast one.

Was willing to offer benefit of the doubt with Ashe's Adventure, you did seem pretty new to gamemaking looking at how broken your last game was (nevermind the fact it took me longer to learn how to decompile RPGMaker files to debug your game than actual debugging). Now I am convinced this is straight up a scam lmao.

Well, that was a swift descent into the hells.

Less than 5 hours and it's gone lmaooooo

I didn't buy the other game and I'm very skeptical as well, but just in case the developer is checking this, I still want to give some advice in good faith:

If you did have high hopes for your first game I understand that how things turned out might be very disappointing, and that you might want to get away from all of it and start fresh. However, you should remember that some people did pay you money for Ashe's Adventures expecting to get a full game someday, and the community of people who buy games like yours is small enough that I don't think you'll be successful as a developer if people remember you as the person who charged $10 for an incomplete game. So, if you do sincerely want to continue developing and selling games, and you do really have a finished game this time, I think the best thing you could do would be to distribute it to the people who already paid you for Ashe's Adventures. Not everyone will be happy with getting a different game than the one they bought, but at least it would show that you are making a serious effort to make things up to your customers, and I think it would be better for you in the future to be thought of as a developer with a rough start than a developer who can't be trusted.

I don't know what the developer really has in mind, but if there's even a chance that they're really trying, I hope this will be helpful.

Yeah... sad to say but the developer did this once before and hasn't learned their lesson.
Save your breath, they won't change.

Huge brain move to replace Ashe with Alexia in the title and drop the price by $3. I'm sure that was the problem last time.

A friend of mine was going through some site that lets him effectively preview patreon posts from a wider scale to see who he wants to support, and the amount of ai art being sold for 5 to 10 dollars on patreon was horrendous. He said they were literally just packs of like 10 or more images that were probably just generated with a single keyword, thrown into a zip file, and uploaded to make money off of with literally no effort.

All looks like bullying to me.

All looks like bullying to me.

Just to make it clear, I got this "game" through a little trick that made me avoid for Patreon (as I refuse to pay an obvious scammer). And what happens in said game is: start a narration talking about how kingdom was all nice until villain arrived and conquered it eating the queen etc., mostly in text on black screen except for an AI made pictures of what was probably the villain engorged with queen, then a cutscene in a mostly empty map where MC and protagonist of the previous scam game of OP discuss of going into nearby town and think what to do and......game loop back from the start of narration and when it's time for the cutscene again, it just stop working entirely. And even looking at the data folder, there really isn't anything past it. So the whole "20 hours of content" and such written by OP, it's all BS. And a definitive proof of a scammer.

...perhaps it is, but are you implying it's not deserved?
I mean, if you look at the evidence, what's going on is quite disgusting so getting away with just some callouts and bullying is incredibly mild.

Looking at what's happened:
They started making one game, sold it for a pretty high premium, and silently ghosted on the development less than a week later leaving anyone who paid for it with barely a demo and a lot of unfulfilled promises. This is a BIG no-no, both morally and legally.
Then they make another game out of the blue, not just similar to the first, but also an apparent scam... but also decided to advertise it under a different account to avoid too obvious associations with the first game. This in itself is another huge red flag on credibility and trust, more so because you can't even leave comments on the second game's page to warn people of deceitful description.

So in a nutshell, due to two very bad acts, their career as a game dev is practically over. As it is, they'll have some serious explanations to do to even have a chance at forgiveness, though considering what they've done this seems unlikely to ever happen.

It's deserved. Scammers don't deserve to be defended from bullying. They bring it upon themselves, especially when they are dumb enough to be seen a mile away.

No, this is bullying.
